I don't think so. If anything, having less disposable income will only drive people to breaking. You spend $30 or $40 at a time breaking and you don't realize that you've participated in 10 breaks over the last 4 days because you only spent $40 at a time, which always seems manageable.

Especially when the alternative is paying $400 upfront for a box yourself. Things even out in the end if you buy into a million breaks, but breakers count on you not noticing that.
